Gah! Was writing down all the things I wanted to say, but then someone realises the thread's been derailed, stops, and takes my fun away! *seethes*.
I'm over it. Ish 
I do want to say one or two things, though. I don't feel the redemption of Vader was a one off. Indeed, I seem to remember one or two in TOTJ, and even Malak in the KOTOR game and, depending on how you look at it, some more in the Legacy comics, too. I think, for the most part, Jedi do try to redeem Sith, but also, for the most part, they know it can only be done with those who they already have a personal connection with, and so don't bother with many Sith they come across. The only exception to this (that I can recall at the moment) is Revan, while he's on Taris. He attempted to give one Sith the option of redemption. Darth Bandon, I believe his name was. Or maybe it was Branden. Brunden?
Another thing. Dream, you made mention of the Lake scene. Now, I can't remember the exact details of that scene, but my impression, from what you detailed and later discussed, was thus: That she was giving the reasons as to why they were there, instead of in some Force heaven or what have you. There's a debate as to what is right and wrong, it's the end result that counts, not the actions; or the actions that count, not the result. Meaning, what's the right (in this case Light) path. Now, from what I gather, it's supposed that it's either one of these, but I believe that it's both that are necessary, the actions and the end result, for it to be the right (Light) path. Let us also suppose that this last one is the correct one. Neither Jacen nor Mara chose the right path, instead choosing the former two.
